April 24, 1918 at Shibe Park
Athletics 3, Red Sox 0 (7-2)
Babe Ruth threw seven shutout innings to start this one but he was tagged for three runs in the eighth as the Red Sox lost their second game of the season. It was their first road game and Ruth gave up just five hits, unfortunately one of them was a three run homer by George Burns. He walked three and struck out one.
The Red Sox were held to just six hits in the contest. Harry Hooper was a perfect three for three with a double and he also stole two bases.
